The Alchemist Association

In the world of Shinseina, where magic is intertwined with daily life, there exists a prestigious and influential organization known as the Alchemist Association. This group of dedicated alchemists works collaboratively to advance their knowledge and enhance their craft, focusing on the study and creation of alchemical potions, elixirs, and transmutations.

Like the Mage Council, the Alchemist Association is driven by a relentless pursuit of knowledge and mastery in their field and rarely gets involved with worldly matters.

Through The Years

The Alchemist Association has a rich history that spans centuries.
